    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I just had my first group of baby rosy boas. From what I found on line I guess I am to keep them separate. Not feed them until their first shed. For bedding I use shredded paper and I gave each one a little of that. I also don't use tanks I use racks. I put them in shoe boxes in animal plastic drawers. Am I OK with what I have done do I need to mist the paper. Can any one give me any advice if I have missed any thing. Here are some pictures of the little ones.

Thanks Bill

Thanks any way!!!! Thought some one would lend some help what I looked at on a Rosy Boa breeder site said they wont eat until first shed. WRONG!!!
 
This forum is rarely used so don't think you were being ignored. I don' t know about anyone else but I only check it about once a week or so. Congrats on the babies! And are you saying they ate right away before shedding? If so, congrats again!
 
Yeah, these forums aren't used a great deal, I almost always forget they are here.
Those are some great looking babies, congrats!
 
Yes I teased them and got them to eat. I started with Ball Pythons and had nothing but trouble with them stopping eating. I wanted to be sure I was on track. After doing more searching I see I got lucky. I have another female that should be giving me some young soon. I hope I am just as lucky with her babies. Now all I have is Boas good switch for me I guess I'm having better luck.
Thanks Bill
 
Yeah, my first and so far only batch of Rosy boas were almost all kind of PITAs to get eating. Hope your next batch is as easy as the first!
